Archive your war goals and retreat to gather your strength once again. You have to wait for your perfect time and strike at once.
The UC is very strong once you do all the pass the initial challenges but that doesn’t mean you are out yet! Even though you're all industry accumulates in one place you still can’t catch the late game production of multiple systems.īeing patient doesn’t mean staying idle.
Not only you can dodge incoming fires, but you can also spawn your Obliterators in different positions. Your late game super weapons are also quite powerful too. You are going to be get detected eventually but that doesn’t mean the fun stops. You have many possibilities with the high bandwidth, never make it go to waste. With the high bandwidth capabilities, you can now play your own version of Deus-ex hacking mini-game! You get to place lots of defensive programs to lock your opponent down. Patiently create a bunch of sanctuaries on your next target and declare war. You can literary become untouchable! Overcollonization penalties shouldn’t worry you and with the help of the early distant hacking points, now you can reach for distant lands. Late GameWhen you set your war goals to boom your economy and achieved. When coming close to the late game you need to evolve your population to Umbral Shadow. So in a way, they always seek to expand or grow. Their way of observing is to infiltrate the organisms they are curious about. Their gameplay even reflects their story. UC could be a pacifist politicly but their actions are not. I’ll go about the war in later but during this time you should be fighting with one of your neighbors. Always try to exploit the fact that you can use the special nodes. You should also get two Behemoth to your system during this time. You can purge minor factions very fast or go for the buildings you lack resources. During mid game, you should focus on increasing your stealth level and assimilate a minor faction.īecause you can access the special nodes very fast your options becomes many. Know that until you are sure that you will get attacked or you are going to attack, you’ll never in need of a fleet, unlike traditional factions. Mid Game By the time you reach mid game, you should already control 3 special nodes, a bunch of sanctuaries inside your first target with steady population growth, ended all of your food and industry buildings. The UC’s biggest strength is being a hidden force and when you reveal yourself it must be felt like a big surprise. Always remember to play a long game and never disturb your long term plan with fast gains. Even if you should never focus everything at once, it will be a good idea to spend some turn for 1 or 2 backdoors in great distances as the game progress, it will be much harder to get in those places. Setting up a good position at far away will help you to kickstart your hacking operations in later stages. Otherwise you have to fight to get backdoors in great distances. Even if you think you are present every one of the nodes in near your home faction (including your neighbors). The UC has to spread its range with backdoors or sanctuaries early on to make sure be present before another faction. Also, you are going to need every other possible gain from outside since you have only one system. Auto cloaking will help you when settling in dangerous locations. This will prevent you from worrying about the military side of the game, preparing your fleet the future and making you are a solid competitor for the Behemoth quest line.īehemoth gameplay is a must to stay strong in mid and later stages of the game. Even though you really don’t need any military tech during that time, it will be natural to spend some time on military tech.
The UC is a hidden faction and this will last in early turns (1-35) but after that, you are going to battle to remain hidden by upgrading your stealth from millitary tech tree. So naturally, you should always try to find systems to put your sanctuaries on and that means exploration! Of course ideally, you should always find the systems where your opponent's potential colonization places and fill it with the population to make them sleepers faster during later stages of the game. Yes! Even though they are designed to be a tall faction I would say, they play like a hybrid of both (tall&wide) playstyle but very much depended on expanding the other systems via sanctuaries. I would put the UC as an exploration/expansion faction. Their faction quest is quite easy too but what else? They have one system and they can only have their own population.
